INTEODUCTION.
On the fly-leaves at the beginning- of Lib. VI. of
Suffolk Deeds, Edward Rawson, the Recorder, has
copied a letter of attorney from Barbara Laycocke,
widow of John Laycocke, to him dated Sept. 7, 1G67,
which the County Court had ordered him to record in
the " booke of Reccords for deeds & Such like things,"
but which he had neglected to enter, it " being," as
he says, " forgot to be put in its right place & being
misplact in my privat letters." These fly-leaves are
not numbered in the original, but in the printed vol-
ume they have been marked with Roman instead of
Arabic numerals in oi'der to distinguish them from
the others.
The book itself begins with the deed from Richard
and Mary Hutchinson to Eliakim Hutchinson, which
was left for record Feb. [ ],^ 16(38, and which
was duly attested by Edward Rawson the Recorder.
He continued in office until October, 1670, when the
General Court at its second session held in Boston
Oct. 12, 1670, passed the following " Order requiring
y*-" secret, to delili county records to clarke of y*"
County Court."' "
"The County Court of Surt'olkc, for reasons best knoune to
tliemselues, saw good to improove ^f' Free Grace Bendall as
' The corrosive action of the ink on the piiper has rendered the date nearly illegi-
ble. The present volume has suliered even more in this respect than the preceding
voluini'.

Q Introduction.
cliirke of the sajd Court, in stead of M'' Rawson, ordering
the sajd jNF Eawson to deliuer unto him all those things
w^*" did ooncerne him in that place. The Court being in-
formed that there are yet still in his hands seuerall reccords
that concerne the county, it is ordered, that the sajd M''
l\awson deliuer the same to the clarke of the County
Court."
The last instrument of which the record is attested
by Edward Rawson is the marriage contract of Zach-
ariah Whitman with Sai-ah Alcock which was left
for record Oct. 26, 1(570, pp. 243-24(3 inclusive.
Page 247 is blank. On page 248 is the mortgage
deed of Joseph Rock et ux. to Thomas Brattle re-
corded Jan. 13, 1(370/71, the record of which is
attested by " Free Grace Bendall Clei-ic."
Thus ended the official connection of Edward
Rawson with these County records, although he con-
tinued to hold the office of Secretary to the General
Court. As he had been appointed ])y the General
Court Oct. 14 or 23, 1651, " recorder for the county
of Suffblke " ^ to succeed William Aspinwall, his term
of service had lasted for nineteen years, a longer
period than that of either of his predecessors.
All the deeds received for record from Jan. 13,
1671, to April 29, 1672, are attested by Freegrace
Bendall, Clerk. He also attested two other instru-
ments left for record May 22d, and June 7th, 1672.
But all the other deeds from May 22, 1(372, to Oct.
15, 1672, when this volume ends, are attested by
"Isaac Addington Clerk" or "Isaac Addington Re-
corder."
The pagination of the original is irregular. There
are three pages numbered 1 and two pages 31, 84,
199, 200, 201, and 202. In the printed volume, as
heretofore, they have been distinguished from each
'Mass. Col. Rec. III., 258; IV. (Part 1), 68.

other by the use of the letters a, b, etc. There
are no pages 4, 99, 100, aiul '2i)i). Page 247 is Ijhuik
as has been before stated. As in the vokmies ah-eady
printed, the pages of the original volume are indi-
cated by numbers placed at the top of every page of
the printed volume, and also in brackets in that part
of the printed page where each page of the original
begins. There is no other pagination and the Index
is thus made to refer directly to the pages of the Ms.
record.
The reader is again reminded that, according to
the Julian Calendar, which was in nse when these
records were made, the legal year began on the 25th
of March, so that when the month is designated by
nnmber and not by name, March is the first month.
A key to the characters representing the contrac-
tions found in the manuscript is added.
